ABSTRACT
Keywords Juvenile Justice, Investigation
The purpose of this study was to analyze the analysis of the process of investigation of 
children as perpetrators of crime and fulfillment of the provisions regarding the 
importance of consideration or advice from education experts, psychologists, 
psychiatrists, religious leaders, professional social actors or social welfare workers 
and other experts in the investigation of child.
The type of legal research used is a type of normative research. Research conducted by 
examining library materials or secondary data, so called normative legal research. The 
approach in this study uses a statute approach and a conceptual approach.
The results of this study explain that First, the most striking difference in the 
investigation in the SPPA Law with the previous juvenile justice law is the presence of 
diversion in the settlement of child cases as an implementation of restorative justice 
which is the aspiration to be realized in the SPPA Law. The presence of this diversion 
will have an impact on investigations, both from internal investigators and external 
investigators. Intern investigators must of course have increased knowledge in handling 
child cases and in the case of external investigators, strong coordination is needed with 
outside parties that are directly related to investigations, namely the public prosecutor, 
police and those who have juridical and sociological interests in the child's case. 
Secondly, Fulfillment of the provisions regarding the importance of consideration or 
advice from education experts, psychologists, psychiatrists, religious leaders, 
professional social actors or social welfare workers and other experts in the process of 
investigating children aims to better portray the non-juridical conditions of children 
facing the law, so that every official at the inspection level can make a wise decision, in 
the interest of the child and still not betray the principle of legality in criminal law.
